How Cosmetic Bonding Can Transform Your Smile (Without Damaging Teeth!)

Cosmetic dentistry has evolved greatly over the years, with the emphasis now on minimal intervention rather than cutting down healthy teeth. Cosmetic bonding emphasises this new approach as it is a completely non invasive way of correcting imperfections on front teeth, repairing chips and breaks, closing spaces and creating symmetry. Our case study highlights the impact that cosmetic bonding can have:

Chipped front tooth, uneven teeth
A chipped, uneven front tooth. Note the asymmetry.
Straight teeth, even teeth
Straight, even teeth!

You can see the amazing difference that can be achieved. The technique involves NO drilling, NO anaesthetic, NO damage to the underlying tooth. What could be better? There is NO need to undergo invasive techniques such as porcelain veneers or crowns if your teeth are healthy and have plenty of enamel.

Please consider cosmetic bonding as the first choice option. Treatment completed using Ivoclair Empress composite by Dr Nissit Patel.
